Event Details

Join us to fill empty bowls with hope! Empty Bowls is the signature event for Urban Ministries of Durham, the private, non-sectarian downtown charity that provides food, shelter and a future to neighbors in need, ending homelessness for 237 people in a single year. At Empty Bowls 2016, you'll have the chance to sample soups prepared by local chefs and vote for your favorites. Local artists and artisans are making hundreds of hand-crafted bowls, and with certain tickets, you can select one to take home. The family-friendly evening (kids 6 and under admitted free for soup only) includes music and the chance to learn more about the important work Urban Ministries of Durham does to feed, clothe and shelter our neighbors.

Urban Ministries of Durham

Established in 1983, Urban Ministries of Durham works holistically to end people's homelessness and meet the emergency needs of very poor and hungry neighbors. Using donations from the community and with the help of some 4,000 volunteers, UMD connects more than 6,000 people each year with food, shelter and a future.
